Reasons for teaching Facebook in School

Stumbled on this short post by Ewan MacIntosh titled, "Two reasons for 'teaching Facebook'in school".  He wrote a response to this parents complaint about social media in the classroom:

“Our students don’t need to be a part of a classroom experiment with all this technology stuff. They need to have a real teacher with real textbooks and real tests.”

Head over to his blog to see his response.
